The port with excellent links

The Port of Lübeck is the central logistics hub connecting the Baltic region with continental Europe. Scandinavia, Finland, Russia and the Baltic are interlinked here with Europe's major economic centres and conurbations. Located in the SW of the Baltic, the Port of Lübeck offers optimal sea transport routes combined with the shortest link to many metropolitan regions. Ensuring that inbound and outbound cargo flows invariably reach their destinations quickly, reliably and at optimal cost, the Port of Lübeck possesses highly efficient hinterland connections:

By road: The three-lane A1 autobahn to and from Hamburg, and the A7 in addition, provide a direct link to Western and Southern Europe. Eastbound, the A20 runs directly to Stettin in Poland.

By inland waterway: For bulk goods along with project and heavy cargoes, the Elbe-Lübeck Canal plays an important part as a direct link with the European inland waterway network.

By rail: All Terminals possess a rail link to the electrified, double-track main line to Hamburg. Several outlying marshaling yards ensure smooth arrival and departure of trains. Along with conventional block trains, Lübeck offers an extensive network of intermodal train connections.
